SOCIALISM IN CHINA.

Tur possibilities of closer. co-opera- tion between the Speialist parties of Europe and the Kuomintang have been suggested to Chinese, leaders in the North and South by M. EMILE VANDERVELDE, former Prime Minister of Belgium, and one of the leading Socialists of Europe. During his recent visit to China M. VANDERVELDE Conferred with Chinese leaders of all shades of opinion, and lectured several times before Chinese universitics

and groups of Chinese journalists,

emphasizing the fact that China stands at the parting of the ways, and that an unexampled opportu uity axists to build a sound Socialist Government in China.

On the journey across Siberia M. VANDERVELDE studied the "Three!

In Europe, M. VANDERVELDE pointed out, in dustry is already highly developed, and the principle question con-

to bring about a more equitable distribution of wealth. In China the labour movement is still in its infancy, and industry hardly catab lished at all, so that the first prob. tem is that of increasing produc tion. i
